CHRISTMAS DAY
Hello Homemakers! Once again the
bells on Christmas Day ring out their
old, familiar chimes. Christmas is a
day of hope. And, even in these dark
er days, it is fitting that we should
observe this Christmas-tide with hap
py celebration. For the feast of Christ
mas is the symbol of peace to come—•
it is the Birthday of the Prince of
Peace.
$ >f: $ $
Christmas should be a day of cheer,
so everyone of us must
own personal problems
■and seek to mainiain
Christmas and all that
The old custom of giviir
Christmas is still one of the glories
of this Yuletide season. This year, of
all years, let us find the wider hap
piness of giving to little children, the
•needy and the poor, The real secret
■of true Christmas joy is found in the
words of Him whose Birthday we
keep: “It is more blessed to give than
lo receive”.
May your Christmas Day be filled
-with happiness, brimming over to help
make brighter all the days to come.

It is good sense to serve liver to the
family once a week or so, anyhow.
If some one in your family in inclin
ed to be anaemic, however, you prob
ably have been advised to serve it
oftener. While old-fashioned liver and
bacon still is the most popular way
to cook liver, one likes to have sever
al different ways of serving it, if one
serves it often, so I’m giving you a
new recipe for liver loaf.
